-Fixed JsonConvert to always write a floating point number with a decimal place
-Changed Type values to serialize and deserialize to type name string
-Fixed JsonWriter to allow objects and arrays to be written in a constructor
-Added JsonContainerAttribute with Id, Title and Description members. JsonObject and JsonArray inherit from this attribute
-Added JsonArrayAttribute. Has flag to control whether array can contain null items.
-Added IsRequired to JsonProperty
-Replaced protected method GetSerializableMembers with GetMemberMappings on JsonSerializer
-Fixed QuoteChar not getting set when parsing property name
-Added Load(JsonReader) to JProperty, JConstructor
-Fixed error when populating JProperty with content from collection
-Added the ability for JsonTokenWriter to write individual values as well as arrays and objects
-Added CreateReader to JToken
-Added FromObject to JToken
-Added ReadFrom to JToken
-Improved error message on JObject and JArray Load method
-Added WriteRawValue
-Added missing XML documentation
-Added SerializeObject overload that takes a formatting flag
-Added WriteValue overloads to JsonWriter for nullable types
-Fixed JsonTextWriter.WriteValue(string) to write null instead of an empty string for a null value
-Fixed JsonWriter.WriteValue(object) to no longer error on null values
-Refactored JavaScriptConvert to not rely on DateTimeOffset when converting dates
-Refactored JsonSerializer to use new CreateInstance on ReflectionUtils
-Deleted JsonHandler
-Fixed JsonWriter depth error when writing current JsonReader position
-Fixed JsonSerializer not fulling skipping properties when putting together constructor values
-Changed JsonSerializer so that property names and constructor params matching is no longer case sensitive
Added Skip() method to JsonReader. Skips the current JSON token and any child tokens.
JsonSerializer now has the ability to populate existing members on an object. This behaviour is controlled by the ObjectCreationHandling property.
Changes:
Improved behaviour of JsonReader.Depth property.
Fixes:
Floating point numbers now use ToString("r") to avoid an overflow error when serializing and deserializing a boundary value.
JsonSerializer now correctly serializes and deserializes DBNull.
JsonSerializer no longer errors when skipping a multi-token JSON structure.
Added support for deserializing to an anonymous type with the DeserializeAnonymousType method.
Support for reading, writing and serializing the new DateTimeOffset type.
Added IsoDateTimeConverter. Converts DateTimes and DateTimeOffsets to and from the ISO 8601 format.
Added JavaScriptDateTimeConverter. Converts DateTimes and DateTimeOffsets to and from a JavaScript date constructor.
XmlNodeConverter handles serializing and deserializing JavaScript constructors.
Ability to force XmlNodeConverter to write a value in an array. Logic is controlled by an attribute, json:Array="true".
Changes:
Dates are now serialized in a JSON complient manner, similar to ASP.NET's JavaScriptSerializer or WCF's DataContractJsonSerializer - http://weblogs.asp.net/bleroy/archive/2008/01/18/dates-and-json.aspx
Removed the AspNetAjaxDateTimeConverter.
New feature - LINQ to JSON!
New feature - Ability to specify how JsonSerializer handles null values when serializing/deserializing.
New feature - Ability to specify how JsonSerializer handles missing values when deserializing.
Change - Improved support for reading and writing JavaScript constructors.
Change - A new JsonWriter can now write additional tokens without erroring.
Bug fix - JsonSerializer handles deserializing dictionaries where the key isn't a string.
Bug fix - JsonReader now correctly parses hex character codes.
